Aircraft should probably be an SM.1019, not a SM.109.

I live in Twin Falls in So. ID. and since the day of the crash there has been a thing on the chyron or ticker on the bottom of the news about a pilot being killed in a crash in Western ID. They never ran the story or named the location or him, it wasn't until I heard the news I figured out 2+2. What a bummer, I'm waiting to hear what the NTSB/FAA have to say about this one. Fair Winds and Blue Skies Snort, R.I.P..

I spent the night in Twin Falls on Sunday.

I'd never heard of him before this thread, but he apparently commands much respect here. And that knife-edge pass says "Sierra Hotel" to anyone who's worked around pilots and aircraft. RiP.

Snodgrass was a legendary F-14 pilot in the U.S. Navy and was famously photographed in a knife edge pass close to the USS America aircraft carrier in 1988. Snodgrass was the F-14 demo pilot for Navy for more than a decade and has flown a laundry list of warbirds at airshows around the country.
